Description
Van Gogh’s Peasant Woman, Half-Figure, Sitting, hand-painted in oil
Painted in Nuenen in 1884, this close half-figure shows a peasant woman seated and still, her weathered face and broad shoulders filling the canvas against a dark ground. It belongs to the long series of studies Van Gogh made of the country people as he prepared The Potato Eaters, drawing near to catch their honest character; modelled in deep earth tones, the seated figure has a quiet, monumental presence.
Our version is a hand-painted oil reproduction, brushed onto canvas by a senior studio artist so the seated figure and earthy tones keep the character of the original.
Where a figure study belongs
Its quiet, earthy tones suit a study, a hallway or a considered interior, and work well against neutral or darker walls.
Choose a hand-painted oil or a fine-art print
Order it as a hand-painted oil for genuine brushwork and impasto relief, finished by an experienced painter and made to order, or as an archival fine-art print for a smooth, even finish at a lower price.
